Re: [ILUG-BOM] burning RH cds

i tried writing a RH installation cd on a blank cd, but the new cd is'nt bootable.... now how do i make those CDs bootable??

did you use drag-n-drop to add files/folders?? Did you use HP MyCD?? Did you use "Copy CD" option from HP MyCD??

HP MyCD is hopeless.... Try using Nero/Adaptec... Even then, there could be problems, unless you're trying to make an exact copy of the CD....

Otherwise follow a long procedure...

In Linux, you can create an ISO Image of a CD using dd as

$ dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/path-to-iso-file/filename.iso

Then use this ISO image to burn a CD. This ISO image will have all the properties of the original CD including the volume ID (i.e volume label).
